Just thought I would post about how difficult it was for me to walk past the half price Easter chocolate in the supermarket last night!!!

I wasn't even expecting it but when I turned into the next isle...there it all was...staring me directly in the face...mocking me!!!

My husband followed me and it was like we just stopped and stared at all the choccy bargains...drooling...

It was sad...very sad

I was very close to picking up a creme egg thinking well...this is all I'll have...it's cool...until my hubby said he wasn't gonna have any...and then I was all grumpy cause if I was hoofin into an egg alone and he was there doing push ups and sit ups...well...it wouldn't look good...

So we walked on and didn't get any...not even a little one...

Very proud of myself for that now...I mean it's one thing to just walk straight past the normal chocolate aisle...but we are talking about half price Easter goodness here!!!

nice going chunkster. just think that all the chocolate has been sitting in the shops in their loading dock since before christmas last year with all the rats and mice and cockroaches. you dont need that stinkin' chocolate. im sure we ahve all had our fair share of chocolate over easter, now is the time to get our a$$'s into line and forget about it til next year.

I think that after-Easter is a more dangerous time than Easter itself. Not only do you have extremely cheap choccies, but there's also the mountains leftover chocolate hanging around in the house

I asked not to be given any chocolate, but still ended up with a bit. It's all out in the garage next to my home gym. I have to climb around the gym to get to the chocolate... that ought to stop it being eaten haha. Plus it's just so cold out there, brrr

I wonder what happens to all those easter eggs that never get sold??

Hey Sarah, if you don't want to eat them but hate the idea of chucking them in the bin why don't you donate them to the salvation army or some other charity that does food hampers to give away to families in need? When I made my home a junk free zone I gave all the processed, canned, frozen, soft drinks and junk food to a charity who do weekly rounds giving food hampers to families who are socially and economically disadvantaged. I'm sure the kiddies would be very pleased to receive chocolate.
